Novel Studies

The following novels will be covered during the 2023-2024 school year. Although I will provide virtual PDF copies for each student, I suggest that students purchase their own copies to insure availability, ease of study and the option to make notes in the books as they are covered. 

Please avoid allowing your student to view any of the movies that may accompany these novels as they are not identical story lines, and they often give the students a false sense of confidence about the plots. (AND they usually blab all the details to their classmates which ruins the experience for everyone! ) :) 

We will be reading a variety of poetry and short stories throughout the year from our textbooks as well as all or parts of:

Excerpts from To Kill a Mockingbird  by Harper Lee, and  Long Way Down by Jason Reynolds
